I'd love to help! In Spanish, there are three regular conjugations: -ar, -er, and -ir. To conjugate -ir verbs in the present tense, you simply drop the -ir ending and add the appropriate endings to the stem of the verb.

Here's how to form the present tense of -ir verbs:

- First, start with the infinitive form of the verb (for example, "vivir" which means "to live").

- Next, drop the -ir ending to get the stem of the verb (in this case, "viv-").

- Finally, add the appropriate endings to the stem of the verb, based on the subject of the sentence:

yo (I) -o

tú (you) -es

él/ella/usted (he/she/you formal) -e

nosotros/nosotras (we) -imos

vosotros/vosotras (you all) -ís

ellos/ellas/ustedes (they/you all formal) -en

So, for example, to conjugate "vivir" in the present tense:

Yo vivo - I live

Tú vives - You live

Él/Ella/Usted vive - He/She/You formal live

Nosotros/Nosotras vivimos - We live

Vosotros/Vosotras vivís - You all live

Ellos/Ellas/Ustedes viven - They/You all formal live

Remember that this is just the present tense of -ir verbs! There are many other tenses and conjugations to learn in Spanish, so keep studying and practicing. Good luck!
